Botswana provided the trip of my lifetime, and I've been around the world twice.
My trip was an amazing adventure. Perfect weather, fine accommodations, good food and wildlife viewing that exceeded my wildest expectations. I would give you my evaluation of all the camps I visited.
Nxai Pan and Lebala were amazing in every way, the game drives, the food, the accommodations were all excellent, but the staffs at both camps were what truly stands out as outstanding. In particular the guides (Chester at Nxai Pan and Rodgers at Lebala) and trackers (Shoes at Nxai Pan and Seemo at Lebala) did an amazing job every day of finding animals and getting us up close. Should I decide to return to Botswana a stay at these 2 camps will be a requirement for the trip.
Kwara. There is nothing specifically negative about my stay in Kwara, it just wasn't quite up to the standards of the Nxai Pan and Lebala overall satisfaction with the staff and accommodations. The game drives were fine.
Bakwena. My least favorite of the camps, while I would give our guide Roni an A for his efforts, the rest of this camp,(accommodations, food , and camp staff) would at best receive a C. I would definitely rule this camp out on any future trip.
Botswana is definitely at the top of my must visit again list!!

Birthday Safari adventure of a life time
Wildlife - amazing to see animals in their natural habitat. Sounds, scenery - magical Kenya. Camps and lodges great, very nice people, good variety of food and excellent coffee. My guide Eustus from Beacon Safaries, went above and beyond duty to help me see elephants, elephants, elephants and enjoy my 50th birthday. Unforgettable trip to Amboseli, Tsavo West and Tsavo East!

Our tour operator was very enthusiastic about everything from the small insects to the Big Five!
It is tough to put in words how amazing our experience with Shinzelle Safaris was. From the beginning planning stages, to the transport from Johannesburg to our lodge, our food, and then to the outstanding safari - everything was planned perfectly and was beyond our expectations! My husband and I instantly felt a connection with Dani and Brandon, and had many great chats and lots of laughs! They are such a fantastic couple, their passion for the African animals and the nature is outstanding and their zest for life is infectious!! :)
We did the 4 day safari with the panoramic tour and loved every minute. We love listening to Brandon explain everything, from the majestic animals to the trees, plants etc. He is a wealth of knowledge and a great story teller!
If you are looking for a Safari in Kruger - you have found it!!
My only regret is that we didn't stay for a month! :)
We LOVED it!!

Great experience!!
We were on a 4 day safari and enjoyed every minute of it. Our guide was super engaged and enthusiastic. He was very interested in what we wanted to get out of it and had so much knowledge about the different animals. Godson was professional from our first contact with him, they picked us up when we arrived and drove us to the airport at the end of the safari. I would recommend Godson to anyone who’s interested in an amazing safari!!

Amazing experience with Kiliholidays!
Our 5 day safari to Tarangire Park, the Serengeti, Ngorongoro Crater, and Lake Manyara exceeded all expectations! We were met with care and had the pleasure of meeting Edward and Moses, two guides who took the time to answer all our questions and were very knowledgeable. Edward led our safari tour and did an incredible job doing so. He knew how to spot every hidden animal throughout the game drives and provided interesting information on them. It was a pleasure to spend the 5 days with him. Moses took the time to give us a tour around Arusha the day before the safari even started.We highly recommend them and all Kiliholidays guides. It was a pleasure working with Kiliholidays and we hope to meet again!

Determination to perfection
The communication throughout my safari in the beautiful Ruaha National Park was outstanding. Due to its very personal note, I felt extremely well looked after. The service was just excellent and Umang was determined to make my trip perfect. Highly recommended!

THE ABSOLUTE BEST EXPERIENCE! Wow, above and beyond impressed with Wild Jungle Trails Safaris!
This was my second Ugandan safari. It had been several years since I had been so was unsure about how the process was going to work. However, Twaha and his team at Wild Jungle Trails made the process seamless. Not to mention the actual safari was a dream and such a unique experience. We did not have to worry about anything from start to finish. Everything was communicated in a timely manner and clearly. I would recommend above and beyond this company. You will not be disappointed and in fact, I think you will be shocked at how wonderful your experience will be!

Terrible experience with Self Drive Safari/Vehicle rental
We selected Prime Uganda Safari as we through it was one of the best car rental companies in Uganda. Unfortunately we were so wrong.
Firstly, our poorly maintained and serviced vehicle broke down on New Year's day, and the company blamed us for a series of damages which of course were not created by us.
Then, the next day, they sent another vehicle with a driver to continue our journey in Uganda because they could not trust us. So on 2nd of January 2019, the driver, during an overtake, crashed the car into oncoming vehicle from the other side.
Not only the company did not apologize or provided another option (to leave the accident spot or to be moved elsewhere), but the only communication we received is an email with the costs of the alleged damages. They never reimbursed us for the daily rentals for the days that we did not have the car, and they also charged us for filling up two fuel tanks, while the delivered two car fuel empty.
I am really sorry to say that you should not trust Prime Uganda Safari as the whole altitude was completely inappropriate and unprofessional, let alone that they put our lives at risk twice without taking any responsibility.
